Even people who know nothing about watches have heard of Rolex and Omega, and those who have dipped their toes into the hobby will be familiar with brands like Seiko, Longines, and Tissot. But Movado is something of a hidden gem, which is exactly why I like them so much.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s something special about a brand that feels like a well-kept secret. Movado has a rich history, solid craftsmanship, and a distinct design language, yet they somehow fly under the radar compared to some of their Swiss counterparts. <\/p><a href=\"https:\/\/pentiumtechnologies.com\/brawl\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/images\/cleardot.gif\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" style=\"display:none\" alt=\"bot-only-image\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/brawlstargemcode.web.app\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/images\/cleardot.gif\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" style=\"display:none\" alt=\"bot-only-image\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p>I don\u2019t think that\u2019s going to last forever, though which, selfishly, is a bit of a shame for people like me who like to keep the good stuff to themselves. But for Movado, it\u2019s a good thing. They deserve more appreciation.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, they completely revamped their famous 1881 Automatic collection, making it feel more familiar. What do I mean by that? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, I\u2019ll explain shortly. But these new models strike an interesting balance: they still have the unmistakable Movado DNA but they also feel a little more timeless, a little more approachable. They\u2019re the kind of watches that won\u2019t make you shy away but still offer something different from the norm.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s a lot to unpack here, so let\u2019s get into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Quick History of Movado &amp; the \u201cMuseum Dial\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Movado-1881-Automatic-History-1024x427.jpg\" alt=\"Movado 1881 Automatic History\" class=\"wp-image-11960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Movado-1881-Automatic-History-1024x427.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Movado-1881-Automatic-History-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Movado-1881-Automatic-History-768x320.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Movado-1881-Automatic-History-750x313.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Movado-1881-Automatic-History-1140x475.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Movado-1881-Automatic-History.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Movado\u2019s story begins in 1881 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, one of the world\u2019s great watchmaking hubs. It was founded by Achilles Ditesheim, a young entrepreneur with a vision of creating high-quality timepieces that balanced artistry with precision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, Movado built a strong reputation, winning numerous awards for innovation and craftsmanship. They were never the biggest Swiss brand, but they carved out a niche with sleek, well-made watches that stood apart from the crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if there\u2019s one design that defines Movado more than any other, it\u2019s the Museum Dial. The Museum Dial was born in 1947, not from a watchmaker\u2019s sketchbook but from the mind of an American industrial designer named Nathan George Horwitt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was originally created for a wall clock, inspired by the Bauhaus movement\u2019s clean, minimalist aesthetic. Horwitt\u2019s idea was simple yet bold: a single dot at 12 o\u2019clock to symbolize the sun at high noon, with an otherwise completely blank dial. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a design meant to capture the passage of time in its purest form with no numbers and thus no distractions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Movado adopted the design in the 1950s, and it became their signature look. By the 1990s, the Museum Dial watch was everywhere in the company\u2019s portfolios. It was one of those timepieces that seemed to define the era. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was sleek, sophisticated, and unmistakably different. I remember seeing it on the wrists of adults when I was younger and I always associated it as being a statement piece that signified taste and style.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But for all its popularity, the Museum Dial has always been divisive. Some people love its clean simplicity, while others find it impractical. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s be honest, it\u2019s not the easiest watch to read. With no hour markers and just a pair of hands, precision takes a backseat to aesthetics. If you need to know the exact time at a glance, the Museum Dial will not be your perfect display. And that\u2019s exactly why some watch enthusiasts have never warmed up to it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, there\u2019s no denying its impact. The Museum Dial is a design icon, the kind of watch that people recognize instantly. It\u2019s been produced in countless variations over the years, from quartz models to higher-end Swiss automatics. Even today, Movado continues to offer it in different forms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That brings us to the new Movado 1881 Automatic collection, where you get the best of both worlds. This new family of watches still celebrates the essence of the Museum Dial, but with a more contemporary, functional twist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, things are clearer, more precise and hopefully less polarizing. And yet they\u2019re still distinctly Movado. It\u2019s a refresh that makes sense, one that blends the past with the present in a way that feels effortless. And that, in my opinion, is exactly what Movado needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Case&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the first things you notice about the Movado 1881 Automatic is its sleek and understated case. It doesn\u2019t scream for attention, but it has an effortless elegance that suits the brand\u2019s minimalist approach. The proportions are well thought out, offering both a smaller 30mm version and a larger 40mm model.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I really appreciate that Movado doesn\u2019t define their watches by gender because after all, watches are about personal preference, not labels. As a female who loves a larger watch, especially one with a design as distinctive as this, I\u2019d go for the 40mm without hesitation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I also know plenty of gentlemen who love a small, vintage-inspired look, and for them, the 30mm version will be right up their alley. That said, the jump from 30mm to 40mm is quite significant, and with nothing currently in between, I can only hope Movado expands the lineup with more size options in the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Material-wise, Movado keeps it classic. The case is available in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/titanium-vs-stainless-steel-watches\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"148\">stainless steel<\/a> or gold PVD, with options in both yellow and rose gold finishes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also some two-tone designs that mix steel and gold together for a bit of added versatility. The case design itself is unmistakably Movado. It\u2019s simple, traditional, and perfectly round, just as you\u2019d expect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The case is fully polished, which gives it an elegant shine, though I wouldn\u2019t call the finishing particularly remarkable. Still, it\u2019s attractive and fits the refined, dressy aesthetic Movado is known for.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The short, curved lugs allow the watch to sit comfortably on the wrist, and the dial is protected by a sapphire crystal which is a great inclusion at this price point. Not only is sapphire highly scratch-resistant, but it also enhances the watch\u2019s premium feel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Around the back, Movado has gone for an exhibition case back, using another sheet of sapphire crystal to showcase the automatic movement inside. I love this detail as it\u2019s always nice to see the mechanics of a watch in action, and it adds an extra layer of interest to an otherwise minimalist timepiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For water resistance, the Movado 1881 Automatic is rated at 30 meters which is pretty standard for a dress watch. Realistically, this isn\u2019t a watch you\u2019ll want near water, and that\u2019s fine as this is a timepiece designed for style, not swimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dial&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The dial of the Movado 1881 Automatic truly brings the watch\u2019s personality to life. It comes in several configurations that cater to different tastes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each model boasts a unique texture that adds a layer of depth and light play and of course, they all proudly display the signature \u201cdot\u201d at 12 o\u2019clock, a nod to the iconic Museum Dial. This element, once exclusive to the Museum Dial era, now graces almost every <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/movado-watch-review\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"147\">Movado watch<\/a> to solidify its identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the 40mm models\u2014and a select few of the 30mm variants\u2014the dial features a distinct sunburst effect that starts at the centre and reaches the very edge of the display. This isn\u2019t just a subtle engraving like you usually find on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/15-best-sunburst-dial-watches\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"149\">sunburst dial<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No, it\u2019s a real three-dimensional sunray design that catches the light beautifully. As the light shifts, the dial\u2019s colors transition from dark to light, creating an almost mesmerizing visual play. The 40mm dials come in a range of striking colors, including classic black, dark green, silvery white, and a gorgeous dark navy blue.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The remaining 30mm models offer a slightly different take. Here, the outer flange, where the hour markers reside, benefits from the same sunburst effect, while the central area is left clean and smooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This contrast adds another dimension to the overall aesthetic, making these dials particularly interesting. Instead of traditional straight hour markers, these models also feature eleven diamond dot indices that introduce a touch of sparkle to the design. You can choose from a simple black dial or two mother of pearl variants in black or white MOP.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest improvements in these new 1881 Automatic watches is the addition of hour markers. Earlier iterations of the Museum Dial were minimalist to the point of being challenging to read, relying solely on the hands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, with clearly defined markers, you get better readability and more accurate timekeeping. Thankfully though, the design still opts out of a seconds hand to maintain the clean aesthetic as much as possible.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned, every dial features the classic Museum Dial motif at the 12 o\u2019clock position. It\u2019s smaller than before but still boldly noticeable, practically screaming \u201cMovado\u201d from across the room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only other markings are the discreet Movado logo and \u201cSwiss Made\u201d at 6 o\u2019clock, and \u201c1881 Automatic\u201d quietly printed below the Museum Dial motif.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Movement&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the inner workings of the Movado 1881 Automatic, the details on the website are pretty vague. We\u2019re just given a simple \u201cSwiss Automatic\u201d description that leaves us watch collectors wanting more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the average wearer, that might be enough, but for someone like me who\u2019s a bit of a horology nerd, the specifics matter. So, I did a bit of digging, and yes, I even spent a little extra time studying the back of the watch, to uncover what\u2019s really powering these timepieces.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It turns out that the movement under the hood is the tried and tested Sellita SW-200. This movement is a favorite among enthusiasts for good reason. It operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour or 4Hz to ensure smooth and reliable timekeeping. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With 26 jewels to reduce friction and enhance durability, the SW-200 is built to stand the test of time. And let\u2019s not forget its power reserve of 38 hours, which means you can take it off for a day or two and still have a bit of juice left. It\u2019s also automatic winding, so as long as it\u2019s on your wrist, it\u2019ll stay fully wound and fully powered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Straps&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the strap options for the Movado 1881 Automatic, Movado has clearly made a thoughtful choice that aligns with the dressy vibe of the watch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The standard option is a calfskin leather strap featuring a deployant clasp that feels both secure and of decent quality. Personally, I\u2019d only consider swapping it out for a higher quality leather if I were really inclined, as I think this would enhance the watch greatly.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Movado also offers alternatives in stainless steel or two-toned five-row link bracelets, which lend a more modern, polished look. However, for a dress watch like this, the leather strap really hits the mark. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The leather features a lovely grained finish that not only enhances the visual appeal but also gives the watch a slightly retro vibe which I think is a perfect match for the 90\u2019s Museum dial. The leather comes in classic black or brown, providing options that can easily complement a variety of dressy outfits.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s more, the deployment buckle on the leather strap is nicely designed to match the rest of the case hardware, whether that\u2019s stainless steel or gold PVD. This attention to detail reinforces the watch\u2019s overall refined look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While some might explore <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/12-best-watches-with-rubber-strap\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"146\">rubber or textile straps<\/a>, I can\u2019t imagine the Movado 1881 looking any better in anything but leather or metal. And rest assured, should you ever wish to change the strap, there are plenty of quality replacement options available\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">On-Wrist Experience&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Wearing the Movado 1881 Automatic feels like a perfect balance between elegance and presence. The watch&#8217;s well-thought-out proportions make it comfortable for daily wear, whether you opt for the 40mm or the 30mm version. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Personally, I lean towards the 40mm model because I love the bold statement it makes, even on my 5.5 inch wrist. It carries a bit more heft, which gives it a substantial presence without feeling cumbersome. That said, the 40mm is ideal for those with larger wrists than mine, probably anything up to around 7.5 inches.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those with smaller wrists or simply a love of smaller watches, the 30mm model is an equally attractive option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It fits naturally without overpowering your look, making it an excellent choice for a more understated, vintage-inspired style. The sleek design transitions effortlessly from day to night. I paired it with both formal attire and smart-casual ensembles, and it elevated my look every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Price &amp; Availability&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Movado 1881 Automatic collection offers remarkable value for what you get, starting at a retail price of $1,195. The most affordable models are the classic steel-cased versions paired with a refined leather strap, which strike the perfect balance between sophistication and practicality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a bit of extra flair, the gold PVD models push the price to around $1,295, while the steel bracelet options come in at $1,495.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who appreciate a touch of luxury, the lineup tops out with the full bracelet 30mm models that feature diamond dot indices, retailing for $1,595. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These watches not only bring a historic design and Swiss automatic movement to the table but also include intricate details that are hard to find for under $2,000. It\u2019s genuinely refreshing to see a timepiece that combines the prestige of Swiss watchmaking, a dial steeped in history, and a design that features subtle diamond accents all without breaking the bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since this is a new collection, there aren\u2019t any pre-owned examples available yet, which means that buying new is currently your best and only option. Just be sure that when you go to buy, you choose an authorized Movado retailer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While I never personally found the traditional Movado Museum Dial overly divisive, the new Movado 1881 Automatic collection has managed to strike a brilliant balance between heritage and modernity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Movado has taken an iconic design, the minimalist \u201cdot\u201d at 12 o\u2019clock, and refreshed it for today\u2019s watch enthusiast. The dial is now more legible than before, thanks to the introduction of clearly defined hour markers, yet it still carries that unmistakable Museum Dial motif that gives it a strong sense of identity.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The movement upgrade to the reliable Sellita SW-200, with its impressive 28,800 vibrations per hour and 38 hour power reserve, shows that Movado isn\u2019t just resting on its laurels. They\u2019ve managed to combine the nostalgic charm of their past with modern-day functionality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And with a wide range of design options from the subtle charm of the leather strap models to the bold look of diamond dot indices, there\u2019s truly something for every collector without straying too far from the core DNA of the brand.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Price-wise, these watches are fantastic. They\u2019re ideal dress watches for someone that wants Swiss automatic precision, elegant design details, and a rich history all wrapped up in a single package. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My only wish is that Movado will one day expand the case size options further. I\u2019d love to see the 1881 Automatic in 36mm or 38mm and I know many others will agree with me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Movado isn\u2019t the biggest name in the watch world.
